Rate my Ganon

I've recently decided to use Ganon because he's friggin awesome.
I've read through the guides and watched a couple of combo vids. So here are two of my matches, how can I improve?

It needs some work.

I'm no expert, but I'd say that you need to incorporate more aerials, learn how to AutoCancel Dair for thunderstorming, and try not to ganoncide.

Your too predictible with Gerudos+Wizkicks.
And try using more SH uairs.

Learn to punish out of shield. When your opponent attacks your shield, you should try to go for a Jab, F-tilt, or D-tilt.

Don't APPROACH with Flame Choke. Use it to punish ending lag.

There were many times where you could have gone for dash grabs....and didn't.

Autocancel D-airs and U-airs more.

Don't spotdodge much with Ganondorf. It sucks. Instead, shield more and look for more opportunities to let down the shield and attack (or grab if your opponent is right next to you. Just because Ganon's grab is bad doesn't mean you should never use it).

D-smash is too situational for the number of times you used it.

If you have time, ALWAYS take time to use up Ganon's RCO lag. RCO lag is a landing animation that occurs whenever you land on the stage after jumping from the ledge when you have sweetspotted the ledge with a freefall special attack.

Dunno, in general, you just don't seem to know how to use Ganon that well. A lot of your problems will go away when you understand how Ganon's defensive options work.

thanks for the tips, I really had no clue what to do out of shield. I read the guide but I don't really get how to auto cancel the Dair, doesn't seem to work for me.

I just picked him up cause the Twilight Princess Ganon is so BAMF, had to put that pimp hand to use.

List of things you need to improve on:

+ I noticed you used the Down+B Aerial move a lot. Don't. It get's extremely obvious and easy to dodge. Only use it sparingly as a surprise attack whilst in the air.

+ Don't use Wizkick too much, it got repetitive and obvious that you were going to use it.

+ You have to space yourself between you and your opponenet and learn what distance is safe to use Murder Choke (Side Special) without missing from distance problems.

+ Thunderstorm. Probably one of Ganon's best moves, offensively and defensively. Learn to use it.

+ Uair more. Also one of Ganon's best and should be used a lot.

Remember, you have to use all of Ganon's moves to be truly beast and remember to not just stick with one or two moves, otherwise you will get *****. HARD.
